Overview
Profusely illustrated throughout, a worthy addition to the Veloce Pictorial History series. Each BMW model (1945-2013) has been painstakingly researched detailing body derivatives, production changes, technical information and hundreds of period photos and diagrams, plus how the ever-changing advertising was used to promote each model.
A comprehensive pictorial history of BMW cars covering the postwar models right through to 2013, when electric and hybrid models started to make an appearance.
The detailed text covers all model ranges, and includes full specs, colour variations and styling details. Illustrations include original line drawings, black & white plus colour period photos, and interior detail. Sports derivatives, limited editions, vans, estates and coupes are included, along with a section on motorsport achievements and TV/Movie appearances. Contemporary factory advertising slogans are also featured throughout. Complementing the historical content, technical specifications, ongoing production changes and build figures are included for completeness, making this the ideal reference work for model identification and authenticity.
This title is one of several that Trevor has written for Veloce''s hugely successful A Pictorial History series, and is a bookshelf-must for anyone interested in a slice of BMW motoring heritage.
